Prisoner

2004 · 13 min

A quiet, intimate short that lingers in ambiguity, asking you to sit with unspoken longing and mystery.

Overview: I knew someone who lived in an attic for a long time. He told me that it was because of an upset in love. He didn't want to elucidate! I like this mystery.
How it feels: Melancholic, tense, eerie and earnest. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Isolation, love, identity, memory
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
